It's hard to imagine Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani in any other career than music/entertainment. But in an interview with Gayle King the couple was asked what their alternate careers would have been had they not made it big in the music industry.

You could probably guess Gwen's: had the "Hollaback Girl" star never burst on the scene with No Doubt or solo she says she would have worked in hair and make-up. She's known for her trademark make-up and hairstyles so this isn't much of a surprise.

Blake, on the other hand, is more of a wild card. He says if he had not made it in music, he'd be a roofer right now. He was actually already working for a roofing business before he made a career in music. He didn't love the job though... or even like it, really. He says he doesn't know how to roof anymore because he's "blocked it out" entirely.

We're definitely glad Blake ended up as a country megastar instead of a disgruntled roofer for sure. So is his bank account.
